  • Rationale:
    Reduces attack surface on kernel devs opening the links for MITM
    as HTTPS traffic is much harder to manipulate.

  • The current codebase makes use of the zero-length array language extension
    to the C90 standard, but the preferred mechanism to declare
    variable-length types such as these ones is a flexible array member[1][2],
    introduced in C99:

    struct foo {
    int stuff;
    struct boo array[];
    };

    By making use of the mechanism above, we will get a compiler warning in
    case the flexible array does not occur last in the structure, which will
    help us prevent some kind of undefined behavior bugs from being
    inadvertenly introduced[3] to the codebase from now on.

    This issue was found with the help of Coccinelle.

  • The current logic has a bug which cannot find matching pattern, if the
    pattern is matched from the first character of target string.
    for example:
    pattern=abc, string=abcdefg
    pattern=a, string=abcdefg
    Searching algorithm should return 0 for those things.

  • The pattern is set after trying to compute the prefix table, which tries
    to use it. Initialize it before calling compute_prefix_tbl, make
    compute_prefix_tbl consistently use only the data from struct ts_bm
    and remove the now unnecessary arguments.

  • The current logic does not calculate correctly the good shift array:
    Let x be the pattern that is being searched. Let y be the block of data.
    The good shift array aligns the segment:

    x[i+1 ... m-1] = y[i+j+1 ... j+m-1]

    with its rightmost occurrence in x that fulfils x[i] neq y[i+j].

    In previous version, the good shift array for the pattern ANPANMAN is:
    [1, 8, 3, 8, 8, 8, 8, 8]
    and should be:
    [1, 8, 3, 6, 6, 6, 6, 6]

  • - added typedef unsigned int __nocast gfp_t;

    - replaced __nocast uses for gfp flags with gfp_t - it gives exactly
    the same warnings as far as sparse is concerned, doesn't change
    generated code (from gcc point of view we replaced unsigned int with
    typedef) and documents what's going on far better.
